BBRADSHAW .. 001

Heyyyy, so I'm Bear Bradshaw. Just got here and everyone seems sort of stressed?, but I guess there's always kind of stuff going on. Sure it just takes some time for things to chill after a mission.

Hoping to help that along at least a bit since I brought some food stuffs from the ground and was going to make dinner tomorrow. Nothin fancy, just maybe a bit of difference from what y'all've mostly been eating. Not not a fan of beans, but I think everyone should get some variety, you know? Anyway if there's anything you hate let me know just to be safe.

Y'all've.

Never heard that one before?

Not everyone here can appreciate our vernacular down in the South.

You don’t know what I appreciate.

You mean I can finally use my Kentuckyisms?

I can acknowledge linguistic creativity.

But like what.

Trust me, we get real creative with sayings down in the South, especially when trying to compare it to something so viscerally, you can't help but immediately get it. "Hotter than two rats fucking in a wool sock" comes to mind.

That absolutely cannot be a real saying.

'Fraid I've heard it a couple times.

In what context

What it says on the tin: when it's hot. Summers in Kentucky are humid, especially in places allegic to air conditioning.

Sometimes people've looked at me like I've grown a second head

You're in some familiar company now, anyway.

Seems so, which'll at least make me question my wordin less

I'm Jax, Head of Resettlement. You've been with Dislinked for a while, haven't you? Just not on board.

Nice meeting you

Yeah, been around! Mostly in remote places

Thought it was a myth.

Nah, as real as a glass lizard

That’s also not real.

Never seen one? They're lizards but no legs

Pretty sure you’ve just described a snake.

I swear it ain't a snake

For goodwill, I’ll believe you.
That was just never anything I had to look out for out west.

Real generous and real appreciated

Haven't really been out that way myself! Where're you from?

Wyoming. I flew rescue helicopters. So. More acquainted with sky beings.

I’m also pretty new. No one will haze you. They’re all very nice. They’re all a little dramatic. The library is in fact usually just a library.
